Joey, welcome back. We missed you. The rig looks great, as usual. I really don't know what parts you have available there so it's hard to give you an idea. But, if you can get some of the older parts, they would work well. A 3570K and an Asus Z77 board would be a good start. That's a good CPU and being a couple generations old, you may get a good deal on one. Same with the GPU. I have never played NFSD, but I have an EVGA 670 SC that never met a game it couldn't handle well. It's a few generations old now, so maybe a good price on it. If that is budget enough for you.

 

[Alsisgevat]

Thanx Steve, appreciate it,yeah got so bussy I forgot about the online life. unfortunatly the stores here dont stock old stuff anymore, but your 670 I googled, seems like an awesome card, lots of great reviews

..unfortunatly the stores here dont stock old stuff anymore..

Check out Carbonite when you get a chance, it's a SA-based forum for people to connect and sell/resell many different things, but mostly computer parts. I've picked up many unusual deals over there.. I'm "ZaLiTHkA" on that forum, same avatar. Actually, I use the same name and avatar everywhere.. Lol.

 

[Alsisgevat]

Interesting, thanx my SouthAfrican brother! Lol

Progress shots. Swapped my small rad for the corsair h100i. Put some foam in the front panel as per a suggestion from a member here. I'll post more pics when I get the time (and the thermal paste) to work on it.





The old rad...



I also have 4 new fans to install. Thermaltake 140 and 200mm, and two corsair af's. The af's got really good reviews and for in my budget.

Thank you Bill.

 

[Dude]

You have a great looking rig Jack. Great job with the tubing

 

[linnemeyerhere]

Jack, the rig looks very tidy. Was the second upright reservoir for function or style/balance?
